Depeche Mode @ Barclays Center: September 6, 2013

A leather-clad reunion

On Friday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, it seemed as if the audience had been waiting years for Depeche Mode to take the stage. And really, they kind of had been. The band was touring in support of its most recent album Delta Machine—its first release since 2009. Clad in leather vests, studded shirts, and sometimes no shirts, the group plowed through countless new tracks mingled with classics like Personal Jesus,Just Can’t Get Enough and Never Let Me Down Again. I think it’s safe to say that no one left Barclays that night feeling let down.
